Last week, I got involved in Coinbase as a play on a new alt-season being on the cusp of breaking out. But Coinbase isn't the only brokerage with a chart that looks great.

Another one broke out to a post-IPO high today and I'm getting involved to broaden my exposure to this space.

In today’s Daily Digest, we’ll review the following:

1. New position in KRE (regional banks)
2. No adjustments since the last report.
3. Closed ARKK position.
4. Current status of open campaigns.
5. Volatility Snapshot.

Let’s dig in!

One thing I’m looking to do more of here at ASC is share some of the scans we’re running internally each week.

Our roots are in top down technical analysis. We do it better than anyone. And we share a lot of it, but we don’t share enough.

We’re literally running hundreds of ad-hoc scans each week. And we’re going to start giving one away every weekend.

This one is a clear and simple leadership scan, which is why I like it so much. This is the textbook top down approach. It doesn’t get any better.

We start with the best sectors, drill into the best subgroups, pick one, and then find the top stocks.

This week, Industrials stand out as a clear leader—second only to Tech, up nearly 9% in May, and the first sector to complete the V-shaped recovery and retest all-time highs.

Within Industrials, the...

The nuclear energy trade just got a massive jolt of energy.

Last Friday, Uranium stocks exploded higher after President Donald Trump signed executive orders to revitalize U.S. nuclear energy production.

The result? The VanEck Uranium & Nuclear Energy ETF $NLR had its best single-day performance since 2008.

But this move isn’t just about headlines. It's also about the strong fundamentals and technicals behind it.

The AI revolution is massively increasing global power demand, and everyone is turning to nuclear energy to scale their operations.

Top tech firms know this, and they’re investing heavily in small modular reactors (SMRs) and advanced nuclear infrastructure to power their data centers and server farms.

Meanwhile, geopolitical instability and the global push for energy security have made Uranium and nuclear development mission-critical for many countries.

That’s the story, and the market’s listening.

The VanEck Uranium & Nuclear Energy ETF holds the best names in the space, from heavyweights like Cameco $CCJ (~7%) and Constellation Energy $CEG (~8.7%) to fast-growing...

One of the things I love most about bull markets is how they try to include everyone.

Everyone is making money. 

Whether it’s growth stocks or value stocks. US stocks or international stocks. Gold or bitcoin. 

It’s all working and we’re all happy. The parties are better. You get the picture. 

And the reason this is true is because most risk assets participate in bull markets. 

Even the bad ones join the party eventually. 

And of course, we can always find bad stocks that are bucking the trend and falling, but I’m talking about subgroups and thematics. Most areas end up working.

At the end of a sustained bull market, the list of groups that didn’t go up will be very short. 

It’s a hallmark characteristic of the good times....

If I had to trade just one setup for the rest of my career—only one—it would be this:

Buying simple long calls on stocks making fresh all-time highs.

That’s it.

Clean. Pure. Effective.

Sure, there would be stretches of time where this setup doesn’t work. I get stopped out, or the trade fizzles, or nothing on my watchlist is breaking out. That’s part of the game. But then—every so often—I catch a monster. The kind of move that can pay for weeks or even months of waiting.

That’s what makes it all worth it.

Here’s why I love stocks at all-time highs: There are no bagholders.

Nobody is underwater. Nobody’s stuck saying, “If it just gets back to my entry, I’ll sell.” Everyone holding the stock is making money. That’s bullish behavior fuel. When people are winning, they don’t typically hit the sell button—they let it ride.

And then there’s the other side: the shorts.

Every single person short a stock at all-time highs is losing. And the higher it goes, the worse it gets. That pain? It’s real. It forces action. Shorts start to cover, often in a panic, creating an additional...

Our Hall of Famers list is composed of the 150 largest US-based stocks.

These stocks range from the mega-cap growth behemoths like Apple and Microsoft – with market caps in excess of $2T – to some of the new-age large-cap disruptors such as Moderna, Square, and Snap.

It has all the big names and more.

It doesn’t include ADRs or any stock not domiciled in the US. But don’t worry; we developed a separate universe for that. Click here to check it out.

The Hall of Famers is simple.

We take our list of 150 names and then apply our technical filters so the strongest stocks with the most momentum rise to the top.

Let’s dive right in and check out what these big boys are up to.

Here’s this week’s list:

More and more stocks are flirting with all time highs. Today's trade has all-timers in sight, as well as a possible Hundred-dolla-roll -- two things that make me incredibly bullish.

In today’s Daily Digest, we’ll review the following:

1. New position in Gold Miners.
2. No adjustments since the last report.
3. No exits since the last report.
4. Current status of open campaigns.
5. Volatility Snapshot.

Let’s dig in!

With the markets starting to act a bit more “normal” again—whatever that even means anymore—I’ve been feeling more willing to put some risk on.

And when I say “put some risk on,” I don’t mean getting reckless. I mean firing my favorite kind of shot: long calls.

That’s my go-to trade when conditions line up. Simple, directional, defined risk, and explosive when it works.

And this week, the setups were speaking loud and clear. So I took action.

Here’s where I pulled the trigger:

A Canadian Bank – Clean technical setup, strong trend, and some fresh momentum behind it. No need to overcomplicate it.

A Crypto Platform – Bitcoin strength continues to be a rising tide, and this name was well-positioned to benefit.
